Love to see this at the top of HN! I haven't written anything with this language yet, but I have met some of the developers of this language. They're pretty great and they are doing a lot of really good work in the open source hardware community. Another project they maintain is Surfer: https://surfer-project.org/

The challenge of a HDL over a regular sequential programming (software) language is that a software language is programmed in time, whereas a HDL is programmed in both space and time. As one HDL theory expert once told me "Too many high level HDLs try to abstract out time, when what they really need to do is expose time."
